Carmen is a French opéra comique by Georges Bizet. The libretto is by Henri Meilhac and Ludovic Halévy, based on the novella of the same title by Prosper Mérimée, first published in 1845, itself influenced by the narrative poem "The Gypsies" (1824) by Alexander Pushkin. Mérimée had read the poem in Russian by 1840 and translated it into French in 1852.
*************************
Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta (1841-1920) was a Spanish realist painter.
He studied painting under his father, Federico de Madrazo, and at the School of the Beaux Arts in Madrid. After 1860 he lived mostly in Paris, where he studied under Léon Cogniet. His remarkable technical ability made him a highly successful portrait painter in a Salon style.

Aqui estoy, media noche, medio borracho en medio de la montaña. Los monos duermen, las loras tambien. Solamente los jaguares y los manigordos atemorizan la noche - y Maria Callas, la mas grande de todos los tiempos - y a solo un click estan otras, igual las mas grandes de todos los tiempo. Soy del año 1952, mal vino, pero gran futuro. Somos los que pueden oir la esencia de siglos, come si eso fuera normal. No somos los mas grandes de todos los tiempos, pero los mas afortunados.
